OBJECTIVES OF THE ASSIGNMENT
For Solidaridad, sustainable value chains are those that ensure equal participation and contribution of women and men. To achieve this, it requires explicit examination of gender issues and proactively integrating interventions that address the specific needs and priorities of women and men into our projects. We call this gender mainstreaming. This is crucial to ensure that women and men are equally able to participate, contribute and benefit from Solidaridad’s interventions.
Gender inclusivity for Solidaridad means that men, women, girls and boys can participate and benefit equally from opportunities, resources and rewards in economic and social development. Solidaridad believes that gender inclusivity brings benefits for all.
Solidaridad’s Gender Task Force has developed complementary tools to strengthen our gender inclusivity strategy. The Gender Business Case (the Why) can be seen as the reason why we work on gender inclusivity. The Gender Business Case is structured around three tiers:
